Advantage™ Revive polymer improves the manageability of hair while maintaining its luster, matching the color vibrancy and shine of freshly washed hair. Many commercial formulas, regardless of price point, are based on similar starch-based technologies that many consumers perceive to leave the hair looking lifeless, dull, less refreshed, and in some cases just as greasy. Advantage™ Revive polymer is formulation flexible – up to 50% less than that of usual dosage levels, and can be used in a variety of formats. Key benefits include effective removal of sebum at the root for visibly cleaner hair with less residue, maintained level of colour, shine and manageability of freshly washer hair, and improved sustainability footprint of dry shampoos by delivering improved performance at lower use levels. view less

The astaxanthin extract obtained from these sources presents an intense red color and impressive antioxidant activity, thus having key features for being used in cosmetics with bioactive functions. Its red color is due to the conjugated double bonds present in the center of the compound. These conjugate bonds act as potent antioxidants, donating electrons and reacting with free radicals, converting them into more stable products and interrupting their chain reaction. Nano Astaxanthin Solution has proven efficacy for antioxidant action, preventing the damage from oxidative stress. Nano Solutions Technology protects the active ingredient from oxidation, increases two times the permeation of the active content on the skin, and enhances the efficacy of the active when compared to the free form of the active ingredient. view less

Its natural concentration in the human body is reduced as a result of aging and, therefore, its replacement in the dermis is an important tool for skin regeneration and combating damage caused by reactive oxygen species. In addition to stimulating the immune system in the skin, the replacement of coenzyme Q10 promotes the proliferation of fibroblasts and contributes to healthier and rejuvenated skin. The Nano Q10 Solution has proven efficacy for the protection of oxidative stress caused by UV radiation, protection from photoaging effects, cell renewal stimulation, and reduction of hyperchromias.

This active ingredient is present in a great variety of species and it has significant relevance as a bioactive molecule for human use due to its anti-inflammatory properties. It's known that quercetin inhibits key enzymes of inflammatory processes, decreasing the concentration of inflammatory mediators in the body, such as prostaglandins and leukotrienes. Despite its advantages, quercetin is a compound very sensitive to oxidation. Furthermore, quercetin is a molecule insoluble in water and it has a very low skin permeation capacity. Nano Quercetin Solution is the stabilized and water-soluble version of quercetin, based on nanotechnology to facilitate its usage in cosmetic formulas and enhance its efficacy. Nano Quercetin Solution has proven efficacy in skin firmness increase, protection from the oxidative stress caused by UV radiation, and protection from photoaging effects. view less

Its potent antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action is well known, making it a cosmetic active of increasing interest for anti-aging products. These properties give the active the ability to protect the skin from oxidative damage, in addition to presenting a calming effect. Resveratrol's anti-inflammatory activity is biochemically linked to its ability to activate the SIRT1 gene. This gene, when activated, leads to the synthesis of sirtuins, which are a group of enzymes that perform the deacetylation of proteins with the participation of the cofactor nad + (nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide). The promotion of sirtuin function is related to the slowing down (or even reversal) of certain cellular aging processes. [2] In addition, due to its affinity for Er and ER receptors, resveratrol is capable of stimulating collagen production and may contribute to greater skin firmness. The Resveratrol Solution has proven efficacy for the protection of oxidative stress caused by UV radiation, protection from photoaging effects, skin firmness, and skin lightening. Nano Solutions Technology protects the active ingredient from oxidation, increases two times the permeation of the active content on the skin, and enhances the efficacy of the active when compared to the free form of the active ingredient. view less

In the skin, retinol promotes cell renewal and increased production of collagen and elastin fibers. With this, it contributes to improving the elasticity and firmness of the skin, softening lines, and wrinkles of expression. These advantages are combined with the lightening effect of retinol caused by the inhibition of the enzyme tyrosinase in the skin, which is responsible for the production of melanin. However, because it is a highly hydrophobic and easily degradable active, much of it is not able to reach the target regions on the skin where it is most demanded if it is applied in its free form. The incorporation of retinyl palmitate into the nanoparticles not only protects the active from degradation, prolonging the effect but also facilitates its permeation to the deeper layers of the skin, where it can act more effectively. Nano Retinol Solution has proven efficacy for skin firmness, stimulation of cell renewal, and skin lightening due to the inhibition of tyrosinase. view less

In addition to its antioxidant action, vitamin E has a dermocalmative effect by reducing the expression of cytokines (such as interleukin-6 and tumor necrosis factor alpha), typically elevated in inflammatory processes. To achieve the maximum effectiveness of this activity, it must overcome the biological barriers imposed by several skin layers, till the dermis. This is possible due to its incorporation into the nanoparticles. Nano Tocoferol Solution has proven efficacy for the protection of oxidative stress caused by UV radiation, protection from photoaging, skin calming effect, skin firmness, and stimulation of cell renewal. Nano Solutions Technology protects the active ingredient from oxidation, increases two times the permeation of the active content on the skin, and enhances the efficacy of the active when compared to the free form of the active ingredient. view less
